Hearths
Allow an apron of at least 225mm at the front of the stove and 150mm on either
side. Care should be taken to level the stove and secure the hearth. If existing
floors do not have adequate load bearing capacity then suitable modifications
must be adopted. All other standard thickness hearths are suitable too.
When the stove is in the desired position, fix the brackets provided to the back
feet and level the stove using the levelling screws, then mark the hearth through
the holes, remove the stove, and drill and plug the hearth for securing the stove.
